Pro Tools won't maximize after minimizing
When I minimize Pro Tools 12.7 HD Native to clear the screen to work on some other files, it won't open to full screen again. I need to right click on the task bar icon and choose my last session, which appears in a pop up menu, and then Pro Tools "relaunches" after a window asking me if I wish to save before opening a new session.
This seems to be a new issue. Shouldn't it just "maximize".? Any ideas? EDIT: This keeps getting weirder. Now my keyboard (Ctrl+=) allows me to switch from Mix window to Edit window, but it won't switch back. Time to reboot the computer I think.

Re: Pro Tools won't maximize after minimizing
I have seen this in previous versions but it's working fine here as well(12.4 and all variants of 12.7).

Re: Pro Tools won't maximize after minimizing
Works fine after rebooting the computer. Must have been a ghost in the machine.
May be associated with opening another piece of audio software, although that one used a separate driver and audio interface. Media Man |

Re: Pro Tools won't maximize after minimizing
I had the same issue just now, with Pro Tools 12.6, then I found this: http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/e...d-or-maximized
Amazingly enough, I had disk in my cd drive and removing the disk fix the issue. I gotta say I don't quite see the connection of how the media in cd/dvd-drive can block up maximizing of app |

Re: Pro Tools won't maximize after minimizing
I’m having the same issue. started in 12.6. Still there in 12.7. I can of course reboot, but as soon as I minimize its back. I can hover over the tray icon and it appears as if it’s going to expand, but as soon as I click that image it goes back to minimize.

Re: Pro Tools won't maximize after minimizing
Holy crap! Sorry to drag up an old thread, but this... LOL! I installed PT on another computer for editing and ran into the min/max issue. Just happened... Found this... Opened CD drive and remove CD... PT can now maximize. Hilarious

Re: Pro Tools won't maximize after minimizing
One work-around is to navigate to your audio drive and try to open another session. That will bring up the option to save/don't save the session that is open(but minimized). At that point, you have a choice; save(or don't) and the open session will close and the next session will open, which should bring PT up again. Or cancel(instead of save) and your open session may still pop back up on the screen(this happens to me once in a while but I still have no idea what causes it)

Re: Pro Tools won't maximize after minimizing
I have had this issue with PT12 for a while and could never figure it out. I've tried workarounds or even the CD tray trick to no avail. Once I held down CTRL and then double clicked the protools icon and it worked but only short lived!
I finally thought to myself, what if I launched Task Manager and try to force PT to maximize that way....well it worked! Launch Task Manager (you could type Task Manager in the search window) then under users, find Pro Tools, right click and then click on "Switch To" and then PT will suddenly appear maximized. |
